HIGHLIGHTS
Operational and financial highlights for the three months ended August 31, 2024 are set out below:

Operational

  • In Colombia, the Company continued its negotiations with Agnico and Newmont for the acquisition of MMA to regain 100% ownership of the Anza gold project, whilst continuing with some low-level sampling and community work.

  • Post the quarter end, on September 10, 2024, the Company entered into a sale and purchase agreement ("SPA") to acquire MMA, thereby reassuming 100% of the Company's flagship Anza Gold Project in Colombia. Under the SPA, Orosur's wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Waymar Resources Ltd., will purchase all of the issued shares of MMA from wholly owned subsidiaries of Newmont and Agnico resulting in Orosur regaining 100% ownership of the Anza Project (the "Acquisition"). No cash is payable up front, with all consideration deferred and wholly contingent upon commercial production from the Anza Project. The agreed consideration payable to Newmont and Agnico consists of a net smelter royalty of an aggregate amount of 1.5% on all future mineral production, plus a further royalty of an aggregate amount of US$75 per ounce of gold or gold equivalent ounce for the first 200,000 gold equivalent ounces of mineral production. Completion of the Acquisition has been approved by the TSXV and Completion is now subject only to customary closing conditions.

  • In Argentina, the Company has completed and submitted all the necessary environmental studies that are required as part of the Santa Cruz Province drilling permit process. Consideration of these reports and drilling approval is expected to take several months and it is thus anticipated the Company will have drilling permits later in the 2024 calendar year.

  • In Nigeria, where the project returned good early results, the Company is proceeding at a slower pace whilst lithium prices start to recover.

  • In Uruguay the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Loryser, continues to focus its activities on the final stages of the Creditors Agreement. In line with the Creditors Agreement, Loryser has sold all of its assets. It has paid for the settlements with all of its former employees, it has finalised the reclamation and remediation works on the tailings dam and has successfully concluded a one-year post-closure control phase. Loryser is well advanced in distributing the proceeds to Loryser's trade creditors in accordance with the Creditors' Agreement, via a court approved paying agent.

Financial

  • The condensed unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost method except for certain financial assets and liabilities which are accounted for as Assets and Liabilities held for sale (at the lower of book value or fair value) and Profit and Loss from discontinued operations. This accounting treatment has been applied to the activities in Uruguay and Chile.

  • Post the quarter end, on September 30, 2024 the Company announced that it had raised the sum of £835,000 (before expenses) through a placing of 30,035,971 new common shares of no par value ("Placing Shares") at a price of 2.78 pence per Placing Share, together with a grant of one unlisted 2 year warrant to purchase one additional common share exercisable at US$0.0494 (approximately 3.697pence) for every two Placing Shares subscribed for. As part of their fee, 3,003,597 unlisted 5 year warrants were granted to the Company's broker on the transaction, exercisable at US$0.03715 (approximately 2.78 pence) for every share subscribed for.

  • On August 31, 2024, the Company had a cash balance of US$710,000 (May 31, 2024: US$1,328.000). As at the date of this announcement, the Company has a cash balance of US$1,150,000.
